    Default Haircut... Anyone?

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    I photographed the infamous Red Barber Chair at the Eastern State Penitentiary (ESP) last fall, while Roamin' with Roman along with BPN'ers Nick Palimieri and Dave Mills. This is the classic standard shot of the chair, composed of 5 exposures tone mapped in NIK HDR Efex Pro. I used Topaz adjust and applied further tweaks in PS CS5 to achieve the look & feel I had pre-visualized while capturing the image.

    Susan, I love the processing you did on this one...it conveys a sense of foreboding...an eeriness that is palatable. Great use of light and shadow...my only suggestion might be to lighten the window panes directly above the chair just a smidge...then again, maybe not, I'd have to see it ...Great Image!
